Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Revenge
Alexis's POV Her eyes widened at what she had just said, her voice muffled as well while she peered at me with eyes so tender that it had me at a loss at what to say or do. “ Is something wrong?” I had thought I was doing something worthwhile while doing this, but it seemed like I had done something I shouldn't have done. Her tears lightened as she sniffed, dragging them in before she said to me;“ I have never had anyone do this for me, no one has ever made me feel this way, feel cherished at all”she bared her emotions at me. My hand hung above her head while I was left thinking about what I was to do in such a situation, was this a good thing or a bad one? “ I can have it renovated if it isn't fine by you, the decorators will be here in an instant and you no longer have to worry about it” I answered her.Letting her know that I was fine with it if she wasn't at all. I had been wrong, should have asked if she wanted to do so before I even started off at the beginning. “ No, t

Alexis's POV “ You don't have to do this, you can't do this to me. You know who I am, you know who my family are and they aren't going to like this” A scoff left my lips at what he had just said before pushing him until he had his back against the wall, fidgeting against the chair. “ And you think that I will be scared? What exactly do you think will happen after what you did to Nortia, that I will pat you on the back for a job well done?” I was trying to keep my anger from escalating because all I wanted to do was strangle his neck until he was unable to take in air. I sniffed in, waiting for him to give an answer when the scent permeated the air. “ You peed on yourself? Are you even a man?” I held out a hand, accepting the taser which I had been given as I stroked across to him. “ It was wrong of me to do so, I shouldn't have done that in the first place, please don't ... .help me apologize to her, let her know that I'm sorry, it is the last time and it wouldn't happen anymo

Nortia's POV Falling asleep was taking more than I had expected, I didn't know why but I will be attributing that to the fact that I was in a new environment and so, I had to get used to it. I tossed again, before laying upright, looking at the ceiling, the net towered over me. I had been glad when he had said that, not minding the fact that he must have looked into things he wasn't supposed to, but a side of me wondered if it wasn't too early, and if I really deserved anything I was getting right now. A stroll down to the walk-in closet had shown me a different tale than what I was expecting, it was hard sort of to believe that they were for me. They fitted just right, in every single way like I had imagined, the slam of my heart told me I wasn't overthinking, that indeed they were mine and I was supposed to be glad about it, but I just couldn't help it What if I got used to leisure such as this and when we finally part well, I find it hard to cope? So I was having double thoug

Nortia's POV He left me deep in thought as he walked up the stairs, with shoulders slouched as he did. I wondered what he had meant by that, but shoving it off my shoulders, I decided not to worry myself about that. I was going to take it as one of those words that he must have said because he had been thinking of countless things, which didn't have anything to do with me. “ By the way” he said as he turned to take a look at me. “ There is a bedside fridge in your room, but I guess it should be empty, I will have the housekeeper stock it up tomorrow” he gave a subtle nod before strolling off. Picking the items back into the first aid kit, I placed them in carefully, making sure that it wouldn't lead to any one of them shattering. With hands holding the cotton wool soaked with blood, I pondered on how tomorrow will go but on a second thought, I decided against it, it would be better if I let tomorrow worry about itself. *************An ache tore through me so persistently and n
Last Updated : 2025-01-13Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Breathtaking
Nortia's POV A war? That was an exaggerated thing to say because I couldn't take that as a war, it was simply me going to the home which my parents had built for me but it had ended up being my uncle's. I let out a sigh, before whispering back. “ I will be back soon, I'm taking a shower”“ Should I join you? I am sure it will be much more better if I do”I clasped a hand over my lips at how sacrilegious that had sounded. “ I will be back,” I answered firmly. “ You stay right outside and wait for me, or you can go and work,I love money you know” the words were out before I could keep them back in. I chewed on my nails, wondering how exactly he had taken that, would he take me to be a golddigger? Not wanting to stay back and hear whatever he would say, I took steps away, hands on the door knob when his voice came through. “ Luckily for me, it isn't a problem, I have a whole lot of them and you can spend as much as you like”I muffled in a cackle at what he had just said before ste
Last Updated : 2025-01-14Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Husband
Alexis's POV “ Breathtaking” I breathed out underneath my nostrils as that was the only thing I could think about at the moment. The emerald green gown clung to her shape, showing every curves that I had never thought she had, curves that might have sprouted so soon that it was difficult to believe it had always been there. “ Really?” Her eyes sparked as she asked, still fumbling with the edges of her gown. I ate the gap between us, making sure she was in my arms before I tugged her closer. “ I am scared” “ Scared?”“ That someone else might see how pretty you are and take you from me”She gave a slight jab at my arms, while her face pinked. “ Are you ready to face your family now?” I was tempted to keep her in and locked in with her but I knew she had other important appointments which I couldn't keep her away from.“ How about we try making our baby now?” A finger ran up the length of her zipper before she smacked my hands, pulling it off. “ We have to go to my uncle and i

Nortia's POV I peeled off my hands in an instance because that had startled me. He was the last person I had thought would hold my hands. “ Sorry” he apologized, a smile flashed across his face as he did so. “ I didn't mean to make you feel that way, all I wanted to do was help you out, that's all” he explained, making me feel bad. “ It's fine. You don't have to do so. I know you had good intentions and I'm not holding it up against you” I let out a puff, still trying to calm the awkwardness when Alexis wrapped his arms around my waist. “ I will take it from here, thank you for doing what I was supposed to do” a smile curved the edge of his lips as he said that to my uncle who bobbed before stepping aside. “She’s yours” he let out a brief cackle before stepping back in. A sigh left my lips when he did that. “ I guess we might have mistaken his intention” I whispered at Alexis whose eyes were lurking around, like he was trying to fish out something that wasn't supposed to be th

Nortia's POV The words I had just heard reverberated in my ear, I had placed a palm against the door wanting to confront my aunt because that had been her voice I had just heard when someone said.“ She tried, she went to his office and he chased her off, didn't she tell you that? There is no way he would want her, Alexis wouldn't want someone like her” A slap resonated through the air before a voice came up, rage coating every inch. “There is nothing that will be too hard for her to do, we have to do that, her father wants her with him and she doesn't have a choice, he is a better choice than Maxwell and we are getting him, and that's final” My appetite was ruined in an instance, to think that I had put up my hopes too high and had actually thought they wanted me back but this wasn't for me, my uncle had done this for Samantha so she would be with Alexis, but Maxwell was here also, how was that going to be possible?I couldn't get off the thoughts that Alexis hadn't said a word t

Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Split
Nortia's POVGenevieve was at the door immediately the word slipped out, tapping on it. I could tell how glad she was at what had just happened and I couldn't wait to go out to let her know. Slipping the test kit in-between my palm, I pulled the door open, when she stood in front of me. “ You are pregnant?” I could sense the hesitation in her tone, the one that wasn't there when she told me to confirm. “ Will it be bad if I say I am?” “ How exactly will that be bad? It will change everything, every single thing, it will. Life will be meaningful again, it will be worth living again” “ Ahaha” I let out, trying not to show that her words have been off in a way because she had said something about life being meaningful again.“ What do you mean by it will change everything? Is there something I don't know about?” It seems I was kept in the dark about something everyone else knew but I didn't have any idea about. “ No, of course not. Why would you even think that? All I am saying i
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Someone is knocked up
Nortia's POV Another day went by and Alexis was nowhere to be found, with each day that ran past, I was left thinking about my actions and his as well. Reaching him has been impossible as all the calls bounced back to me with an excuse of him working. I would have gotten his mother to talk to him, but I knew it would make matters worse than it already was so I clung onto that one part of me that believed he was busy and maybe when he is done, he will come back to me. Even when it was difficult to think about it that way, I shove away the thought that accumulated which was all streamlined to him cheating on me, he wasn't a cheat, that was something I could attest to. He could be a whole lot of things but the man I was married to was not a cheat as he had proved it on countless occasions and I have been made to know what he would be capable of and what he wouldn't be capable of. When the bell had rung out announcing someone at the door, I shoved the pillowcase on my leg away bef
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Papers
Alexis's POV “Have you thought about what to do yet?” Getting out of the house has been hard to make but I have done so, stretching it into weeks. I have been trying to think about what exactly I was to do but every single thing came to a stop at the same point, that I had no business keeping Nortia with me. If I was to protect Genevieve, letting Nortia go was the only issue I was posed with and what I had to make sure happened “ Get the lawyer, it is difficult for me to do this, but I have to let her go” “ There have been requests to see you, most of which are from her and she sounds heartbroken” “ Pass them over” I instructed before flipping my head around as I reached for the landline while placing it against my ears. Nortia's voice came out fine at first but it ended up with her telling me about how her day went and when I will be back to see her, my hands clenched the phone as I wished that was going to be all. That just listening to this would have me running home but I
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Breaking
Alexis's POV My heart dipped while I watched her rush past, trying to get past me into the lift before she turned to me, her face lighting up with a smile before she exhaled. “ I loved how today ended, I will love to do this more often with you” “ We will’ I answered, just so she won't think anything was wrong judging by how quick she was to get that. “ Sure?” She turned to me, flipping her head to the side. “ Will you go with me more often? The next date is on me.” “ Nortia” my eyes clogged with crystal on it which I shoved away because she was doing every single thought to make me have a change of heart even when she had no idea what I had planned and it wasn't even helping. I had promised, to make sure she had no regrets, given her my words that I was the only one who will never hurt her, and had seen through to it, I have intended to see though to that to the very end but it seems I couldn't, things just didn't work out the way one wanted it. “What’s wrong? Your eyes, did
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Confrontation
Alexis's POV “Of course not” I answered, was that even possible? A life where I would be tired of her? Even if all she had to offer was her shenanigans, I was ready to go along with it all. I would bear it all as long as it meant her being by my side. I thought I was doing a good job, hiding my emotions and everything that I had to battle with. My mother had stomped after me wanting to know what had happened after Genevieve had burst into tears but I knew there was no way I could tell her, she would be as heartbroken as I was right now.“Why would you even think about that? How is it possible for me to get tired of you?” “ Then what do you want me to think?” Her lips parted as she questioned. “ I know you might take it as me overthinking, but I am not. I know you like the back of my palm, Alex. I do” “ And I am telling you everything is fine, you don't have to worry yourself about anything” She let out a sigh before turning to the side. “If that's what you are going to say, t
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman The problem
Nortia's POV I woke up to the bed empty, and cold, with Alexis nowhere to be found. Pushing myself up the bed, I searched around, calling his name to find out where he was but I got no answer. Sighing, I turned to the side,my reflection in the mirror as I did so. The dress I was to wear today hung by the side, a red gown to compliment my curves, one which ran straight to my knees and had a slit running up to my thighs. Hiding in a giggle, I selected a blue one for Alexis, one which I was so sure will work in tandem with his skin color.Pouting, I waited for him to walk in which was to no avail, letting out a rasp breath, a hand underneath my chin, I made my way to the window, flinging it wide open. We were supposed to have left earlier on,seeing how the sky had inked, I wondered if there was going to be any need. I was really looking forward to this, fiddling with my hands, I decided to take a shower, I felt sticky and stiff in a giggle, I did. The warm water aided in soothing my
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Next life
Alexis's POV While her chest heaved gently, signifying that she was asleep, I laid beside her watching the angel in human form which laid beside me, the one I could never bring myself to hurt. Her hair laid all about her, spread out as her lashes flustered at intervals, my hands hung up in the air while I tried to tap her just hard enough to wake her up, but I decided against it, it was better that I let her sleep rather than wake her up. Her chest still pinked from how intense it had been ,the memory of my hands clasped around her hair in a fist before it ran all the way to her throat while I slipped in and out of her had me biting into my lips.She had this way of making me feel like a child, every moment with her made me want to spend more time with her, and when she wasn't close to me, I felt suffocated and it was difficult to breathe. My phone ringing slashed through the air, grasping my hand around it. I watched her for a second before I placed it against my ear after slipp
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Aligned
Nortia's POVGiven how suspicious she was acting, I knew something was off, but I tried everything to get their mind off her as they walked away. I knew Alexis would want to pry in but she wouldn't want him to know about her partner yet, it wasn't time for him to do so, as she thought he wouldn't be pleased with him. “ Is something wrong?” He turned to me, wanting to know what I thought about what had just happened but I shook my head. “ She's fine. You don't have to bother yourself about that, I will talk to her and get to know what exactly is going on”He didn't seem pleased but he didn't say one more word as we stood waving them off. When their car was out of sight, he turned to me, grasping me around the waist as he led me in. “ Alexis” I tried to get him off when he stuck adamantly. “ I've missed you” he inhaled into my shoulders. “ What about me did you miss the most?” I wrapped both hands around his neck, yanking him closer to me. “When I saw you today, strapped to the
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Suspicious
Nortia's POV“ I'm fine” I kept assuring Genevieve who seemed to be extra clingy at the moment. “ Are you sure? Your face looks so off, and your hand, the straps, were they so painful? How about I take you to see the doctor?”“I have a band aid on, one you placed yourself, so why are you panicking this much?” “ I just want to be sure that you are fine, that's all, nothing else” she pouted before dropping to the couch, letting out an exhilarating sigh.“ Can't he be locked up or something? That was kidnapping and he is also the one who planted the bomb right? Isn't that enough reason?” I had flickered my gaze at her in an instant. “ You know who did it?” I haven't mentioned it since I stepped in here and I knew Alexis hadn't done so either so where had she gotten it from. Her lips parted in a gasp before she turned to her mother who looked just out of place like I was which meant she knew nothing about what she had just said. “How did you know who had done it, Genevieve?” “ Com
